WorldStrides' first priority is always the safety of our program participants. Through more than 40 years of experience, we have developed a comprehensive security network that ensures each student, chaperone, and teacher will be safe every step of the way:
- Proactive Protection: Before your students leave home, they (and their parents) must sign a Behavior Contract, indicating their agreement to the rules and conditions of the program. This measure allows you to set expectations and prevent problems from arising during your program. In addition, our action-packed itineraries are engaging and designed to keep students too busy to misbehave out of boredom.
- Uncompromising Inclusions: WorldStrides offers the most inclusive programs in the industry, ensuring that students will have the resources they need throughout the program. You won't have to worry about running out of metro tickets or students paying for admissions with souvenir money. We want both you and your students to enjoy the complete experience.
- Immediate Orientation: Upon arrival in any of our destinations, students participate in a guided orientation tour of the city, so they quickly become familiar with their surroundings and comfortable in their new environment. In addition, throughout the program, you can call 24 hours a day for emergency support.
Since 1967, millions of parents have trusted WorldStrides to provide a safe, fun, and educational student travel experience for their children. When you choose WorldStrides, you can feel confident that you have chosen an organization with unparalleled safety and security measures to protect your students.
